Abstract
DR. EMILY M. BERRIDGE, who died on October 8, in her seventy-sixth year, has slipped away from the world of science as unobtrusively as she lived in it. But live in it she did her whole life long, devoting her life to research from her youth, when she was encouraged by her father, himself an experimenter, and by her head-mistress, Miss Arnold of the Dulwich High School, to make science her career. In 1894 she went up to the Royal Holloway College as an entrance scholar in natural science, and it was here she began research work in botany (under Prof. Margaret Benson).
